Stewardship Committee Update

A few years ago we committed to a database called “Breeze” which is used by many congregations. It has allowed us to offer online pledge forms, and online giving. This software allowed us to take a “step up” as we grew with commitments to our minister  and staff and to support the new small groups, study discussions, and religious education programs. It supports a pledge campaign with regular reports to donors.

We are in the middle of the budget/pledge year which runs from July 1 – June 30 (so is different from the tax year which is January-December). Our pledge giving is right on track with $51,548 pledged and $30,466 received. Our Fellowship has 44 households pledging. Pledges are helpful because they help us plan for the budget. The 2024-2025 total budget is $87,364, which we hope will be accomplished with the pledges, plus offerings at services, and other gifts people make throughout the year.
